You want to use @${ECHO} in the port makefile for that to print right

Maybe more to the point is that CXX used to build might only be defined
as part of MAKE_ENV to be passed as the environment for the make
command when it is run.

I believe the correct way to what you want is -

USES= compiler

.include <bsd.port.pre.mk>

.if ${CHOSEN_COMPILER_TYPE} == gcc and ${COMPILER_VERSION} == 49
EXTRA_PATCHES=	${FILESDIR}/extra-patch-srcfile.c
.endif

See 
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/uses.html
and/or comments in /usr/ports/Mk/Uses/compiler.mk

You may also want to consider patching with -

#if (__GNUC__ == 4) && (__GNUC_MINOR__ == 9)
// 4.9 specific changes
#endif

Of note is that clang identifies itself as gcc 4.2 so you may also want
to test for __clang__ if you want to use < with __GNUC_MINOR__


You can also define more control over gcc version - USE_GCC=4.8 will
require gcc 4.8 while USE_GCC=4.8+ says you can use 4.8 or higher.
